Mirror

I'd love to find out why
I cannot trust the sky
For it is all I see
Please take my life from me
When the morning falls
I rebuild all my walls
I rise up off the floor
I will lie no more

Mirror on the wall
Ready to risk it all
I see what you have done
I'm not the only one

This house ain't haunted yet
But you still fear the dead
It's not a wise remark
Fall victim to the dark

Oh, it occurs to me
How good things used to be
All that was is gone
You've taken every pawn
The king has left his throne
His kingdom overthrown
In his ruins lies
Echoes of unheard cries

Who's the fairest of them all?
The one to take the fall
The one I always see
Who is looking back at me?

I see the rain come down
The king has lost his crown
It happened all so fast
It wasn't meant to last

Why can I see this scene?
And smell the gasoline?
This is all too near
My reflection is clear
How could I not have known
I'm in this all alone
I watch the walls cave in
Is that my greatest sin?

As echoes start to fade
The spotlight turns to shade
The window starts to close
Is this a choice I chose?

The screams I used to hear
Are soon to reach no ears
And what I thought did catch
The shadow with the ash

Are you happy now?
Stand up and take a bow
I sing my twisted song
You wrote it all along
Look what you have done
You took from everyone
And now that I am gone
You're free to carry on

This mistake I've made
Has sent me to the grave
I wish I'd understood
That I'd be here for good

Pleas don't follow me
Into this deadly scene
A plea from down below
They'll never hear me though
